It appears that the chip you have is quite new,

my head that the laptop was quite old. As you have a 2.5.0 kernel, I
assume you're on 12.04 - so I think this may help, short of compiling
a newer kernel:

No, the machine is running 12.10, but I downgraded the kernel to
3.5.0-22 because I broke 3.5.0-23's Ethernet interface somehow with my
tinkering. So, before proceeding with your suggestion, I decided to
reinstall 3.5.0-23 and see if it worked. And when I restarted with
3.5.0-23, I found I'd lost the Ethernet connection again. Really, I need
to fix that first.
